Can't see what you mean, mghifi - this board has proved to be excellent in troll-filtering. Nevertheless, On-U Sound's eccentrities & Perry's rants can't suit to everyone's taste, that's for sure!

Gordon, if you add the Creation Rebel dub & vocal sets, the Singers & Players discography and the 10-inch discoplates compilations to the records you mentioned, you have all the roots-reggae (at least as close to) On-U stuff available. Some of the best recordings by Bim Sherman, Prince Far I & Congo Ashanti Roy are there...

I still don't understand what the Trolls comment had to do with my post. I didn't mention any such thing.
Yes, I understand. Some like it, some don't. Thanks for clearing that up.
You guys keep giving me answers to questions that I never asked. Much like a GW Bush press conference.
I never mentioned trolls, your rights to voice your opinions or any other random question. All I said was the known overzealous On U haters were funny and i didn't understand why they bothered posting to this thread. It would be like me posting on a Eagles or Fleetwood Mac thread.

I think this has caused the misunderstanding (if there is one here) – I couldn’t understand who you referred to since the negative opinions came from well-known BAFfers that I couldn’t recall calling themselves “On-U haters” or anything like that...

That’s what I was talking about when I said that there is no troll-posting here i.e. a never-heard-before guy who just posted something very negative and then left, a common phenomenon in the old board in quite a few threads.

Sorry if you found anything I said offensive (the “dog’s bollocks” thing was a bit of an insider joke – look at the “Now Playing” thread), but your post “it’s all greek to me” made me think you were kind of humour-spirited too...

Now if I take your Dubya comparison to heart (which is probably the biggest e-insult I’ve ever been given), I have a reason to be angry too...

I did mean the "it's all greek to me" comment as a joke. It's just an old figure of speech I used seeing as you were in Athens.
And certainly don't take the Bush comment as a comparison. I wouldn't give that insult to my worst enemy.

OK, my friend! The fact that the "all greek to me" expression is commonly used is something I know (unlike the "dog's bollocks" thing) and everyone here finds it quite funny too! That's why, I was surprised to see you come a bit frustrated in the next post...

giab, keep in mind that by editing your post you might force others to do the same in order to keep the meaning intact... "shame on you" as Michael Moore would put it
